Settlement Reaches Over Strikers at Craigsville Facility
Five employees receive more than 10000 in back wages after illegal penalty claims tied to union activity at a Nicholas County wooden door plant. Ben-Fab, a Jeld-Wen subsidiary, paid about 12000 to the West Virginia Workers Compensation Fund as part of related actions while the Craigsville project faced DEP permit questions and potential fines. Wayne Rebich of ACTF described efforts to organize and the subsequent strike and replacements among 22 workers, with four strikers compensated and the company pledging non retaliation.
